I drove for 98 miles yesterday. The outside temp was 25C and the sun was shining into the car. The climate control was set on 20c auto.

For the entire journey auto kept the fan on high and the recirculating switch with its amber light was on. It blowed cold air from the vents Ok but never at a freezing temp that would have really got the internal temp down enough for it to at least reduce fan speed. If there had been fan vents at the back as well as the front it might have managed it better.

I probably would not have wanted much colder air blowing full fan on my neck and arms for 2 hours but perhaps more colder air would have eventually enabled it to lower fan speed.
